20. Trump is getting a bump by listening to Fauci.

This will be short lived. Trump is not stupid he is cunning, corrupt, self serving and as close to being evil as anyone who has ever drawn breath. We are in the midst of a major health crisis many people will die you can only flatten the curve so long. The financial crisis is coming and it appears profit taking on the crisis is underway. Eventual collapse is coming throwing money is just a delaying tactic like flatten the curve. Riots and food rationing are coming. All in an election year.
